Queensland Racing Minister Stirling Hinchliffe called on the Federal Government to create a National Horse Traceability Register.

According to Mr Hinchliffe the Morrison Government has contributed very little to the Australia-wide conversation regarding the treatment of race horses.

Mr Hinchliffe said, “a national register is needed for all horses, not just racehorses, right now to address the fundamental issue of the lack of data on horse populations in Australia”.
